I never considered myself an overly creative person.
Which feels like a weird thing to say as a photographer.
For a long time, I felt a little embarrassed by that. I looked at other photographers and the way they saw the world and wondered why it seemed to come so naturally to them.
But honestly, my goal has always been to give people beautiful photographs of themselves and their families, the people they love most.
Over the last year, I’ve done a lot of work on myself creatively. On cultivating the way I see the world, paying attention to the little things, experimenting, and learning to recognise and accept my own strengths rather than feeling the need to constantly compare myself to someone else.
And yesterday’s Kindred Creatives Tassie workshop was such a beautiful reminder that creativity can take so many different forms.
Claire and Teagen did an amazing job of showing us all the different ways creativity can be cultivated, explored and expressed. And it really made me realise that my creativity might look different to another photographer’s, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t there.
I’m excited to take what I learned yesterday and continue finding new ways to explore and challenge my creativity, and most importantly, to keep learning to trust my own way of seeing things.
Here’s a little selection of some of my favourite images from yesterday.
Thank you ❤️
